Portland Businesses, including Hawthorne Auto Clinic, will Donate Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs to Customers in March

A group of Portland businesses, including Hawthorne Auto Clinic, Inc., will donate energy efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs ( CFLs) to their customers during the month of March. (While supplies last.) The campaign, named Energy March, aims to increase energy efficiency by getting people used to using CFLs. In addition to saving people money, increased use of CFLs would reduce energy consumption in the city of Portland. Increased use of CFLs will also lower carbon emissions and thus help slow global warming. Each CFL is estimated to save the average user $36 compared to the number of equivalent incandescent bulbs needed to match the life of each CFL. The coalition will be recruiting additional businesses throughout March.
